Another Big Thing we need is a Treatment for Covid.

IF there is a Treatment for Covid to stop people getting Really Sick and Dying from it that would make a Big Difference alongside Vaccines

I came up on a Boeing A330 with 250 people who all wore masks the entire trip.. We all had to check in with the health dept and show our permits. I'm going nowhere til they contact me. I'm fully vaccinated and been nowhere near any exposure sites, there's zero chance i have Covid, have fun arresting us all.

And yeah, just starting to enjoy the heat. Walked over 15km today, trace of sunburn. Thanks a fukload Dan

Channel 10 said be the Whole State be in Lockdown
Dan just said "Victoria", so it does seem like someone fibbed to the ABC.
Or the advice was Melbourne but when Dan realised he couldn’t put up the ring of steel he says Victoria wide because there was a wastewater detection in Wangaratta…

You may just get lucky Stui!!!

This declaration dates to 27 July 2021, meaning that any person who has been in a hotspot since that date AND arrives in the Northern Territory after 7:30pm on 5 August must undertake mandatory quarantine at a supervised quarantine facility in either Darwin or Alice Springs.

That's what the vaccine does. It is the treatment for COVID

It probably seemed like a good idea at the time (from the ABC blog):
Man charged with fraud over alleged fake COVID result
An Illawarra man has been charged with fraud after allegedly claiming he had COVID-19 to avoid going to work.

NSW Police say the 23-year-old allegedly sent a text message to his employer, stating he had contracted COVID-19 and was unable to go to work in Newcastle.

His co-workers were stood down and self-isolated while awaiting their test results, and several locations near his place of employment required deep cleaning.

For fu8ks sake Stui, stop blaming Dan Andrews, if people were honest and did the right thing we might not be in this position. It was always a risk when you decided to go a holiday you knew that. Meanwhile I have just cancelled another week of work. (I am not blaming Dan Andrews)
Enjoy your holiday!

In Victoria, 6 new local cases and 0 new cases acquired overseas.
- 29,631 test results were received

The Government says that "The six new locally-acquired cases are all linked to previously reported cases and were not in quarantine during their infectious periods".
